- – 1/2 Tsp. of Paprika
- – 1/4 Tsp. of Garlic Powder
- – 1/2 Tsp. Oregano Dried
- – 2 Tbsp. Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
- – 1/2 Stick or 1/4 Cup Butter
- – 1/2 Tsp. Fine Salt
- – 4 Chicken Breast in Halves Skinless and Boneless
- – 1/4 Tsp. Black Pepper
Step 2: Prepare the Sauce
In a large skillet, combine all the sauce ingredients: butter, freshly squeezed lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, fine salt, paprika, and black pepper. Cook the sauce over low heat until the butter has completely melted and all the ingredients are well blended together, forming a flavorful sauce.
Step 3: Arrange the Chicken
Step 4: Coat the Chicken with Sauce
Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken breasts in the baking dish, making sure each piece is generously coated. Use a spoon or brush to evenly distribute the sauce over the surface of the chicken, ensuring it is well covered.
Step 5: Broil the Chicken
Step 6: Check for Doneness
After the specified cooking time, check the chicken for doneness. It should no longer be pink in the center, and the internal temperature should reach at least 165°F (74°C). If needed, continue broiling for an additional minute or two until fully cooked.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Once the chicken is cooked through and has developed a golden brown color, remove it from the oven.
Allow it to rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. Serve your delicious President’s Chicken hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy the savory and tangy flavors!
- To enhance the flavor of the marinade, you can add a dash of honey or maple syrup for a touch of sweetness.
- For a smokier flavor, you can grill the chicken over charcoal or wood chips instead of using a skillet.
- Make sure to let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute and ensure a tender, juicy texture.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the marinade.
- Feel free to customize the dish by adding your favorite herbs or spices to the marinade mix for a unique twist on this classic recipe.
